Cole was pacing again.
After the trail had gone cold a week ago I’d given up waiting for my people to find my mate for me. In a fit of frustration I had driven out to her last known location hoping I'd be able to pick up on something they hadn’t. I’d found nothing, not even the tiniest hint of her scent even lingered, it was like she was never here. I should have known better, my people were the best, and if they hadn’t found anything then there was nothing to be found. A gnawing feeling had taken up residence in my gut, and the longer I was away from her the worse it got. I was barely sleeping these days, day and night my wolf was howling in my head for his mate, his desperation was only feeding my anxiety. Not knowing was tearing me apart. I needed to let my wolf out, I'd been holding back afraid of what would happen if I let that side of myself free. I had never gone this long without shifting, constantly battling myself wasn’t helping anything.

I sat quietly while Sam drove, unsure what I could say to the gruff woman that would lighten the mood in the cab of the old truck. Sam and Elle’s place was a few miles outside of the main part of town and I spent the ride looking at the houses that were nestled back into the hillsides and cliffs along the ocean’s edge. I loved the way the trees seemed grow by clinging onto the rocks and how they were shaped by the coastal storms, it was all so vastly different from lands I had grown up on. I found myself enthralled by the smallest things, a peek of the ocean as we turn a corner, the bright pinks of the flowers that seemed to grow everywhere, fishermen going about their day working on the docks, my eyes ate up the details.As we came into town, I tried to pay attention to the streets we were passing, their names and the businesses on them, so I could build a mental map of my new home. It was difficult, the uniformity of the white buildings that made the town look s

The drive out to the campground was a short one, I just followed the highway and soon enough I found the turn off I was looking for. Once I hit the dirt road, I turned off all the lights and allowed my wolf to come forward enough to enhance my senses. Driving to the back of the campground I backed into a space that was well hidden. Stripping down to my bare skin I piled all my clothes onto the back seat. I had a special hiding place for the keys for times just like this, since I couldn’t exactly carry them, and I hated just leaving her unlocked.I took one step out away from the car and finally released my hold on my wolf, allowing him to come fully forward, on the second step hair sprouted all over my body, by the third you could hear my bones breaking and reshaping, and at the fourth step I was walking on all fours, fully transformed. Some took longer to transition, but being an alpha definitely had it’s perks. Being in my wolf form was pure joy for me, and I ho

I took an exceptionally long shower, possibly the longest I have ever taken in my life. Standing there with the hot water kneading my sore muscles was therapy I didn’t know I needed. It felt so good to wash away all the dirt that had collected on my body, but as I watched the soap suds up on my skin while I scrubbed I imagined I was also scrubbing out all the bad that I’d endured living with my uncle, every insult, every bit of loneliness and unworthiness I was made to feel daily. By letting all that ugliness float free of my body and head straight down the drain, I felt truly clean, and when I finally stepped out of the shower and onto the bathroom’s fluffy yellow rug, I felt a lot more like myself than I had in an awfully long time.I dried off my body and put my hair up in a towel, then wrapped the borrowed robe around my body before stepping out into the hall. The house was silent and dark, I guessed Elle must have gone off to bed, the only visible light

It was no surprise I dreamed of her, she consumed all my waking thoughts, and not a night had gone by since meeting her where she wasn’t in my dreams as well. Something was different tonight though, where my other dreams had the quality of an echo, this seemed more.. real. I could hear her moving, listened to the soft steps as she circled me, coming closer bit by bit. I was enveloped in her scent, thick and rich like it can only be when she’s close. I didn’t need to open my eyes, all my other senses were on overdrive with her this near. I could hear her heart beat, listened with satisfaction as it spiked when she started touching me. I laid there, reveling in her shamelessness, letting her touch me however she pleased. Her light touch did nothing to stop the waves of electric tingles from racing across my skin in response to her, and I thought my pounding heart would surely give me away when she lay her palms on my chest. As she trailed her fingers lower it was a miracle I held stil

I lowered my head into her neck, inhaling the beautiful scent that was so unique to her. “Just one taste” I murmured. Lost in my own need I ran my tongue along the length of her neck, starting just below her earlobe and ending at her delicate collar bone. I allowed my canines to lengthen and grazed them across her skin, moving down towards her shoulder and back to the crook of her neck where I planted a slow and deep kiss. Lifting my head I allowed my hand to come up, and pushed back the open robe, exposing her full, round breasts to me. A low growl of approval radiating out from my chest as I took in the sight of her like this. I reached out and twirled one perfect pink tip in my fingers, the combination of pleasure and pain dragging another desperate moan from her lips. Moving my hand back upwards, I wrapped my fingers around the back of her neck causing it to arch towards me, her submission was only spurring me on. Allowing my thumb to graze along the front of her throat, I was e

I crashed into consciousness, it felt as though I had been ripped bodily from my dream, my heart was racing and a fine sweat was covering my entire body. I looked around for someone or something that would explain my sudden waking but I found nothing, all was just as it had been when I had fallen asleep. The slight breeze coming in the room from the open window was the only relief I felt from the heat underneath my skin. It reminded me of how I felt before my first shift when my body was beginning to change, the heat coming from within was impossible to extinguish. While I lay there waiting for my heart to deaccelerate, my mind drifted back to the dream I’d had, and the wetness that was still calling for attention between my legs. If I closed my eyes I could still feel the press of his body, and the way the touch of his hands had a slight roughness to them. Remembering the feel of his mouth on my skin made me groan aloud, my body erupting in goosebumps at the thought of it. I

“You sound as idealistic as Elle did when I first met her. Tell you what, how about we try you out for a few shifts and see how things go, if you’re a good fit for the place I’ll keep ya on and eventually – maybe – I’ll consider going home earlier”“That’s fair, I guess I was getting ahead of myself a bit. I may never have worked in a bar, but I’ve done more than my fair share of serving people. My uncle had me play waitress at all his parties and dinners with visiting alpha’s.”“What on earth makes you want to take this job on then? Won’t it just remind you of all that they put you through?”“That’s exactly why I want to do it. They thought by making me a servant for visiting alphas they were taking my dignity and my self-respect, they robbed me of joining my pack in celebrations and instead made me serve them and watch while everyone else enjoyed themselves to

It had taken a couple days for Axle and I to put our low tech plan together, but I was feeling pretty good about it as we drove out town to the western border of the forest. Once we were far enough away from town I found an open spot and parked the Hummer on the side of the road. From there Axle and I started hiking, I hated leaving that car on the side of the road like that, but my priorities had shifted. Once we were far enough away from the road, I quickly stripped down and shifted while Axle pulled our supplies from a bag and crammed my clothes inside “What? Never said I was going to do your laundry too, now here boy let’s put your collar on.” He said with a grin, and a little dog whistle. I was irritated, but since I was in my wolf form, I just huffed at him for his insolence and sat still for him while he put our handiwork around my neck. My “collar” was made from 2 leather belts linked together, we had duct taped a hideous green donut print fanny pack Axle had found onto it,
